hypnosec writes: Linus Torvalds has released the Linux 3.10-rc1 kernel marking the closure of the 3.10 merge window. The Linux 3.10-rc1 is the second biggest rc release in years and the closure of the merge windows means that the features expected out of the Linux 3.9 successor are chalked out. “So this is the biggest -rc1 in the last several years (perhaps ever) at least as far as counting commits go,” Linus notes in the release announcement. Only the one before Linux 3.8 had the highest number of commits notes Stephen Rothwell.Link to Original Source
